Chatham County issues temporary water boil notice

A temporary water boil was issued for northeast Chatham County Wednesday evening.

According to a news release, a ruptured water main led to dropped water system pressure in a portion of the county's north water system.

The leak has been isolated and is being repaired.

"We are issuing the boil water notice as a precaution due to the pressure drop in the system," said Assistant County Manager Dan LaMontagne in a news release. "We do not expect this to last more than one day."
